What to Say...

When opening and Closing Conversations (Part 3 of 7)

Usually the person wanting the dialog to end gives verbal signals. It is polite to respond to these signals called "preclosings." If someone ignores them and does not help close the conversation, a stronger pre-closing can be used. Here is a list of statements you can use to show that you are ready to end the conversation:
* Well, I'm afraid I have to be going.
* I really must go now. (stronger)
* Well, it's getting late.
* It's been a pleasure talking with you.
* It was nice seeing you. (note past tense)
* I know you are busy, so I'll let you go.

通常想要結束對話的一方，會發出言語上的信號。禮貌上，應該對這些稱做「結束前語」的信號給予回應。如果有人不理會這些結束前語，而不結束談話，就得使用更強烈的結束前語。以下列舉一些句子可以用來表達你已經準備好要結束談話：
★ 嗯，我恐怕得走了。
★ 我真的非走不可了。（較強烈）
★ 已經很晚了。
★ 能跟你聊天真開心。
★ 很高興能見到你。（注意是過去式）
★ 我知道你很忙，所以就放你走囉。
